*sobs*

But what if I want to read them again???

Midge · 09-22-2008, 11:54 PM

Are they textbooks?

I thought you meant you were having trouble selling textbooks!

There is always the library, you know.

Curufin · 09-22-2008, 11:56 PM

No. They're just books for fun.

As for everyone else, ¿Que tal?

Thanks, Shesa!

Quite ok, friend, its usually simply GW!

Perhaps you could buy them again if you find later that you want to read them again? Unless they're very difficult to find, that is ...
I'm very particular to some of my books as well. There are some I wouldn't sell.

Midge · 09-23-2008, 12:06 AM

I just want to get a bigger bookshelf.

I thought they were textbooks.. those are the only books it makes sense to sell!

Sorry, I'm not helping. I'll be quiet.

On the other hand, once my dad had a friend who was going to be an elementary teacher and she bought all these books on a first or second grade level, then got a fifth grade teaching job. My dad made me sell like, thirty or forty books to her for practically nothing (I think it was the whole lot for thirty dollars!). Some were like, the Baby-Sitters' Club books, but some were my precious Beverly Cleary's Ramona Quimby books. I miss those, I do, but I only want to read them when I think about them, and I don't actually think about them that often. Life is kind of busy for me to be dwelling on books I once had.

Curufin · 09-23-2008, 12:07 AM

Of course, I could just be patient and buy my t-shirt out of my next paycheck without selling any books. That's a possibility too.

sisterandcousinandaunt · 09-23-2008, 12:24 AM

lol. How we have risen since "glad just to have electricity again" Rinke.

Curufin · 09-23-2008, 12:25 AM

Eh, electricity has lost its novelty again.

***Varnafindë*** · 09-23-2008, 12:29 AM

Patience is a virtue

sisterandcousinandaunt · 09-23-2008, 12:36 AM

Fickle, she,
our dear Rinke
a bibliophile
with expenses while
the vulgar market
needs to park it
waiting on
Acheron
and floating pennied eyes.

(who knows...they get away from me.)

sisterandcousinandaunt · 09-23-2008, 10:45 AM

Good morning, cuties.

katya · 09-23-2008, 11:47 AM

I want an entmoot mug.

***Earniel*** · 09-23-2008, 12:34 PM

Take it from probably the only person to have one, they're pretty nifty.

**Mari** · 09-23-2008, 12:52 PM

At first, I read that Katya wanted an Entmoot hug. I was surprised to read that Eärniel was the only one who could give her one.

Hey, my mind is still doing funny things. I can't help it!

Curufin · 09-23-2008, 12:53 PM

*le sigh*

I don't have to work today. This is a wonderous thing.

**Mari** · 09-23-2008, 01:58 PM

Congrats

I'm still trying to find out if I have homework...

katya · 09-23-2008, 02:16 PM

haha, entmoot hugs sound good too! I feel melancholy. I was looking at strange art exhibits.
